Chapter 84 Strange Fainting_1

At home, Yang Dong thought things over while eating dinner after returning from outside.

She had gone out to roughly understand that, as of now, if she wanted to acquire Qidian Company, she would need at least tens of millions in funds.

Ten million, what concept is that? Putting aside special locations, at this time, ten million could outright buy ten three-bedroom, one-living-room apartments in the Capital City. She currently only had hundreds of thousands in her hands, nowhere near that amount of money.

Money, I need to earn money now.

This was the first time she felt a shortage of money.

When it came to money, Yang Dong was not particularly eager, nor had she ever felt strapped for cash.

Research projects received national funding, and her living expenses were small.

She lived with her mother, Ye Wenjie, without having to pay for food or housing, and she didn't indulge in dressing up or spending lavishly on bags and luxury goods like other women. She also didn't like to dine out. Apart from minor routine expenses, she mostly saved her entire monthly salary.

Mission one, for the time being, was not something she could accomplish, so she passed on it first. What she could do now was establish a technology company.

She was proficient in physics and mathematics but clueless when it came to business, making money, and starting companies. Of course, the main reason was that Yang Dong wasn't interested in these areas. Otherwise, with her current intelligence, she could quickly master it and easily obtain an MBA.

Making money was not her strong suit, nor was it her interest. Professional matters should be done by professional people.

Thinking this, Yang Dong took out her cellphone and called a contact saved as Qin Xiaoling, a fellow alumna and an ace from the business administration department. She wanted to hire her as CEO of her own company, at least to get the company's foundation built.

Once the call connected, Yang Dong spoke up directly:

"Xiaoling, this is Yang Dong. Are you free lately?"

"Sister Dong, I heard you're getting married to Doctor Ding soon?"

"Don't be so nosy. What I want to talk about is business."

"Business? What is it?"

"It's like this..."

Yang Dong eloquently shared her idea of starting a high-tech company with Qin Xiaoling and extended an olive branch, inviting her to become the CEO of her company and manage the company's affairs.

"What, you're starting a company?" After listening, the Qin Xiaoling on the other end was first startled, and then overjoyed:

"That's great! It just so happens I also want to switch jobs. My current workplace treats women like men, the pay is low, and they expect me to work 995, not to mention the boss is lecherous. I've been wanting to leave!"

"By the way, what's the name of your company?"

Yang Dong thought for a while before replying, "Hope Technology."

"Hope Technology, that's a pretty good name."

"What is the main product of the company? Have you done trials? Is there a market? Did you conduct research?"

Yang Dong's response was short and to the point:

"Yes, I think there won't be a lack of market."

"Really? Then that's wonderful. After I get off work, I'll take you out for dinner, and we sisters can have a good talk about this and catch up on old times!"

Qin Xiaoling was very enthusiastic. In her memory, although Yang Dong was not good at talking or socializing, she was not like those people in society who liked to bluff; with her, a yes was a yes, and a no was a no.

Contrary to her expectations, Yang Dong had indeed bluffed her. There were plenty of products, but none had been exchanged from the System yet. She was just thinking about the next steps to earn Points when she heard the System prompt:

"Congratulations, Host, for taking the first step, gathering your forces! A reward of 10 Points has been credited to your account!"

10 Points?

Although not much, it was enough to exchange for Brain Platinum No. 1 and a coffee formula, alleviating her urgent need.

Hope Technology, embarking from now on.

...

Meanwhile, Qin Ming was in the library reading, pondering over the feasibility of using a proton and antiproton collider to eliminate Sophons.

Suddenly, his cellphone rang. In theory, only Liu Yueyue knew this phone number.

Qin Ming took out his phone, and sure enough, it was a call from Liu Yueyue.

It's Saturday today, could it be that she wants to ask me for a tutoring session at her home?

Tutoring could be just a pretext, he was already being targeted.

Qin Ming was not a fool, he could see the change in Liu Yueyue's feelings towards him, from the initial pure guilt to now a mutual affection between a man and a woman.

He could understand the budding emotions of an adolescent girl towards the opposite sex.

But he was someone who had lost the ability to feel, better not to delay someone else's life.

That was also one of the main reasons why he said he didn't like humans before, he wanted Liu Yueyue to know it was difficult and back off, although he indeed wasn't interested in humans.

As he was about to pick up the call and reject her, he heard not Liu Yueyue's voice on the other end, but a man's voice.

"Hello, are you Liu Yueyue's family member?"

This kind of opening line, it was obviously a call from the hospital.

What had happened? She was fine just a couple of days ago.

Qin Ming frowned, wanting to know the specifics, he immediately said, "I'm her family member, may I ask what has happened to her?"

"Thank goodness, we've finally reached someone. Here's what happened, she suddenly fainted, someone called the emergency number 120, and our hospital just brought her in for treatment."

"How is she doing now? Is she in any danger?" As he asked this question, a sudden twinge of nervousness flashed through his heart.

Although it was very light, similar to the feeling of a strand of hair falling onto the skin, it was indeed there.

Qin Ming fell silent, then heard the nurse on the other end of the phone saying:

"She's temporarily out of danger, but she's still unconscious."

"Okay, thank you, I'm coming right away!"

After figuring out the specific location, Qin Ming got up and ran out of the library, hailed a car on the street and rushed to the hospital.

Half an hour later, he arrived at the Third People's Hospital, got out of the car, and queued up

The hospital was just that, a hospital, never short of patients, bustling even in the afternoon.

Qin Ming had just walked in when he encountered a familiar person at this familiar hospital.

Chen Lin looked surprised:

"Eh, it's you, aren't you dead?"

Are you polite?

Qin Ming fell silent, glancing at Dr. Chen, not knowing how to respond to her remark.

"I'm sorry, I mean"

"Sigh~"

Chen Lin uttered her words and immediately realized her mistake. She was just about to explain when she saw the young man had already stepped into the elevator.

Qin Ming had no time to deal with her, took the elevator, and went straight to Liu Yueyue's hospital room.

Inside the white hospital room.

At this moment, the girl looked pale, wearing a snow-white dress, lying on the white hospital bed, her chest rising and falling steadily with her breathing, as if asleep.

Qin Ming frowned, he didn't like white.

As he was halfway into the room, he heard the doctors and nurses in the room discussing:

"There have been a lot of strange occurrences these past few days, how many people have fainted inexplicably?"

"Don't know, at least a few dozen."

"What's strange is that we can't find any cause for it, all blood tests and other examinations are normal, no clue what the problem might be."

It seems, this is not simple...

Qin Ming felt a chill in his heart.
